BHARATA SUSPECTED |
|
| How were they
to know that the good things they enjoyed were for a day, and would disappear at dawn,
like the stage and the crowd after a village play is over? The guests ate fully and soon fell fast asleep. The following morning Bharadwaaja said to Bharata: "At a distance of two-and-a-half yojanas from here runs the river Mandaakini. On its banks is an unpeopled forest with Chitrakoota hill to its south. On the slope of the bill, in a hut your brothers and Seeta are dwelling." And he explained in detail the way they should follow. The three queens were presented to receive the sage's blessings. "This is Queen Kausalya," said Bharata, "the mother of Raama and here, to her right and supporting her, stands the mother of Lakshmana and Satrughna, sorrow-stricken and limp like a creeper stricken by summer winds." "And here is my mother, the cause of all our sorrow," said Bharata, pointing to Kaikeyi who along with the other Queens prostrated before the sage. |
